Description:

More than 425 people have been arrested at a demonstration against the government's ban of the campaign group Palestine Action.

Hundreds gathered in Parliament Square in central London to oppose the group's proscription, some holding placards that read: "I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action."

The Metropolitan Police said the majority of arrests were for supporting a proscribed organisation. More than 25 people were arrested for assaults on police officers and other public order offences.

The government proscribed Palestine Action under the Terrorism Act in July, making membership of or support of the group a criminal offence, punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
